    Details that matter

    nShield as a Service
    Own the keys, not the HSM

    What is nShield as a Service?

    nSaaS is a subscription-based, post-quantum ready solution for generating, accessing, and protecting cryptographic key material—separately from sensitive data—using FIPS‑certified nShield HSMs delivered as a cloud service.

    Ready for migration or a mixed approach

    Because nShield as a Service benefits from the same unique Security World architecture as on-prem nShield deployments, you can easily migrate your cryptographic operations from on-prem to the cloud, or use a hybrid approach, mixing both cloud-based and on-prem nShield HSMs for increased redundancy and reliability.

    Simplifying Your Cloud Migration

    Today's enterprises seek the flexibility of cloud deployments. However, when the HSMs acting as your trust anchors reside in your datacenter, access from your cloud applications becomes complex and expensive. With nSaaS your applications can access your HSMs from anywhere—your datacenter, your cloud deployments, or both—while benefiting from:

    • Predictable Budgeting - Convert CapEx to OpEx with monthly performance-based pricing
    • Comprehensive Protection - Extend cryptography and key management across multiple clouds
    • Optimized Resources - Decrease time spent on maintenance and monitoring tasks

    Geo-fencing

    Geo-fencing

    Regional data centers facilitate geo-fencing to meet cloud data security and data sovereignty mandates.

    Crypto Security + Cloud Strategy

    Crypto Security + Cloud Strategy

    Advance your cloud-centric strategies with FIPS 140-2 Level 3 protection for your business-critical apps and data.

    Maintain Full Control of Your Keys

    Maintain Full Control of Your Keys

    Supports multi-cloud/hybrid deployments with the same consistent toolset. Flexibility to migrate workloads on premises or to another Cloud Service Provider.

    Secure Code Execution

    Secure Code Execution

    The CodeSafe secure execution capability provides on-demand access to your organization's secure, sensitive code protected inside the HSM.
